Trend survey: Five formations to enter next National Assembly

In the first week of the election campaign, the coalition We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria is 0.9% ahead of GERB-SDS, a survey of electoral attitudes conducted by the Trend polling agency shows. The coalition We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria enjoys the support of 26.5% of the respondents and the coalition GERB-SDS is supported by 25.6% of the respondents. The Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS) comes third with 13.6%, followed by "Vazrazhdane" with 12.9% and BSP for Bulgaria- 7.5%. "The Left" coalition has managed to take some of the Bulgarian Socialist Party’s votes and is supported by 3.5% of the respondents. However, it remains below the 4% threshold to enter parliament. Two more formations are close to the electoral barrier - "Bulgarian Rise" with 3.6% and "There is Such a People" with 3.1%.

Trend‘s poll was commissioned by "24 Chassa" daily newspaper and was conducted between March 6 and 12, 2023 among 1,005 adults in the form of direct face-to-face interviews.
